Imagine you could manipulate a person’s sense of morality with a simple magnet. MIT neuroscientists say it’s possible. “To be able to apply [a magnetic field] to a specific brain region and change ...
This article was updated Aug. 9 at 3:30 pm E.T. In a remote forest laboratory in Germany, free from the widespread pollution found in cities, scientists are studying slices of human brains. The lab's ...
WASHINGTON -- Dr. Demetrius Lopes snaked a thin wire with a tiny magnet on its tip into an artery in Paul Kelsey's groin and threaded it all the way up into his brain. Aided by a helmet-shaped magnet ...
Picture your brain as an intricate road map, networks of well-worn streets and highways laid out in every direction for wherever you want to go. Every time you book an Airbnb, figure out the tip on a ...
About 3 percent of people in the U.S. suffer from amblyopia, or "lazy eye" as it is more commonly known. People with the condition can see out of both eyes, but one eye dominates and the eyes may not ...
Researchers have developed a gene therapy technology that uses magnetic fields to switch groups of neurons on and off, controlling brain circuits affected by Parkinson’s disease. In addition to ...
A MAGNET which can guide surgical instruments through the brain is being developed by Oxford Instruments. Its Superconductivity subsidiary, based at Tubney Wood, near Abingdon, is building magnets for ...
Using magnetic fields, scientists can activate specific brain cells in mice and make them run, spin and freeze, new research shows. This could help scientists pinpoint the specific brain circuits ...
